That looks awesome!!

Using a sous vide is like cheating, but I'll take it! ;)

Venison round roast cooked sous vide with roasted veggies and Turkish flat bread. I don't make bread very often, but every time I do I wonder why I don't make it more.

Absolutely! A raw oyster is nothing compared to some of the strange things we ate in Japan.

I used a little clamato juice, a shot of vodka, some diced cucumber, grated ginger, and an oyster. I thought it could have used a dash of Tabasco, but I was afraid of overpowering the delicateness of the oyster. My wife loved them, so that's all that mattered.

A friend at work brought me a few dozen oysters, since I had to work all weekend and I missed the oyster festival in his hometown. I made a couple of oyster shooters and an oyster gumbo. The recipe described it as a thin gumbo, but it sparked dinner conversation about the essential elements of...

Looks great John! I'm going to have to check out Swallow Farms.

He only bought them so he could hand them out to trick-or-treaters. I know because I went to his house 9 times on Sunday!

A friend at work shot too many deer last year and gave me a couple of them, and I've been working my way through the freezer on weekends. Venison loin with demi-glace, celery root puree, orange glazed carrots, roasted brussle sprouts, pumpkin gnocchi, roasted garlic with blood orange segments...

How a person drinks coffee is often a good indicator of the type of cigars they like as the two seem to correlate. Look for a dark wrapper, something like a maduro or ligero. Padron makes a variety of great cigars that might satisfy your tastes.

I smoked some chicken leg quarters yesterday. I smoked them for 90 minutes and finished them in the air fryer for about 10 mins to crisp the skin. It's ridiculous how cheap and easy it is to make something that is so tasty. I paired it with some grilled onions and zucchini and rice topped...

I just watched the highlights of the Italian GP and found it entertaining. I was glad to see someone other than the predictable two end up on the podium. There's not enough competition in F1 for my taste, so on-track events that level the field (like rain or this weekend's incident) draw my...

Looks perfect to me too!! Seared tuna was one of the gateway foods that made me realize there were delicious things to enjoy that were very different than what I grew up eating. I can say without exaggeration that my first plate of seared tuna changed my life!

Look right in the middle, parallel to the window. Copperhead.

PLPC is my go to stick for a medium body smoke.

I need to figure out how to get our Black Racer family to come back! Aside from the day one of them got into the Bluebird house and made an omelet (on Mother's Day no less), Black Racers are good to have around in Virginia. Several years ago, I found a nest in our garden hose coil one spring...

That male is about to have the last sex of his life!

Except at the B&M they don't keep saying, "Okay...THIS is my last order!" 🤣

Grilled rack of lamb with celery root puree, with a cherry and wine demi glace.
